KY Custody

junio 2025

To prepare our Kentucky Custody section for translation into Spanish, we revised 16 questions for clarity and accuracy. This included separating the questions Can a parent who committed violence get custody? and Can a parent who committed violence get visitation? to make it easier for survivors to find the information they’re looking for. We also created the new question Does a temporary custody agreement or power of attorney entered into while one parent is deployed have to be filed in court?

We added a new statute related to custody on our Selected Kentucky Statutes page. 

Changes made in English and Spanish.
